This was our first time to go to Harvard City Stables and certainly will not be our last! We enjoyed our ride! Max and Tanner were awesome! Tanner was our Wrangler and guide and gave us loads of information about the wildlife, the area, and was real personable. After a while it felt like he was just part of our... More

This is a small and quaint yet amazing stable with friendly tour guides and well mannered horses. We went on a 3 hour guided tour in the summer of 2007, and no other horseback riding tour we've experienced (to date) has come close to being as involved or memorable! The back-woods tour took us over mountains and through streams to... More

We've gone to them for the past four summers; we just returned last week from this year's excursion there and it continues to have the same high standards for which it's come to be known. Max has excellent people working for him.... More

My husband and I went on the three hour Deadman's Gulch ride. The staff were very friendly and the place looked like a dilapidated old ranch house. Very "old west" look to it. The horses were well taken care of and very tame. Our guide, Shane, pointed out the sights along the way. The trail went through a creek a... More

My wife and I rode horses on the Colorado trail with Harvard City Riding Stables on May 29th. It was my wife's first time on a horse and we rode for 1 1/2 hours. The guide was very patient and experienced as well as informative. The horses were well trained. The scenery was amazing. We crossed streams 4 times. The... More
